I have a front lawn that loses topsoil, my tree roots are showing and have very little grass, mostly moss and some mushrooms!

Do you want to re-seed the area?
You think you can fight 'Mother Nature'? Embrace your little Hobbit spot of mossy, mushroomy world. Make it a rock garden, low maintenance with a few little nursey plants that thrive in a mossy world. Possibly add a water feature, garden fence featrue, bench, make it parklike and enjoy what nature has given your to be steward of.
I like that idea! I am afraid to aerate the lawn and hurt my tree roots. Neighbors who don't like chemical fertilizers like me have reverted to white rocks on their lawn, not really my style.
Use mulch instead? I would love moss! Love Johnchip's ideas - embrace what you already have and enhance it. Add some solar lights and garden art.
